Asics DS Trainers.
There are no other unless you have perfect feet and legs. Which most don't!
That said when you stick a pair of normal runners on the scales and a pair of lightweights but not racers on the scale the difference is about 50g. Quite frankly does 100g really make a difference unless you are Haile Gebrselassie? _________________

Lucy,
The weight did not help Haile Gebrselassie in the 2007 London Marathon did it? I beat him!! hahaha
Ok, he pulled out at Mile 19/20, when I was just going past mile 5, but thats not the point
